UPDATE: @SenatorHagerty and the Republicans just voted to let Trump take the Qatari jet with him when he leaves office.
Insane corruption. There is no bottom.
As it currently stands, the main structure of the White House, excluding the East and West Wings is a mere 55,000 square feet.

"To say that the president is making drastic policy changes to cure a problem that only exists in his imaginationβ¦that sounds like youβre shilling for Dems when itβs just reporting the flat truth."

"A footnote in the book says the authors were shown the clubβs registry from more than a decade earlier and that Epstein in fact had been a member until October 2007."
